SIL Global
Staff news, events & people
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
News, events and community for SIL staff and partners around the world.
SIL Global is the official app for SIL staff, members and partners worldwide — one place for the news, events, resources and conversations that keep a globally distributed organisation connected.
Wherever you serve, the app brings the whole organisation to your phone.
MAIN FEED
See stories, announcements and updates from across SIL in a single feed. Like, comment, bookmark and share posts with colleagues. Everything is organised so you can catch up in minutes.
TOPICS
Follow only what's relevant to you — Announcements, Bible Translation & Scripture Engagement, Messages from the Executive Director, Finances & Funding, Global Plan updates, Artificial Intelligence guidelines, and more. New topics are added as the organisation grows.
CHANNELS
Switch between Global, Americas, Africa, EurAsia, GSLT and other channels you belong to. Each channel has its own feed, topics and events, so regional news stays regional and global news reaches everyone.
EVENTS
Browse upcoming gatherings, conferences and prayer events. Register in a tap, see times in your own timezone, and get reminders so you never miss a session — including events scheduled twice so every timezone can join.
RESOURCES
Find handbooks, policies, guides and reference material in a structured library you can search and bookmark for offline reference.
NEWSLETTERS
Read internal newsletters in a clean, mobile-friendly format, with past issues archived and searchable.
USER DIRECTORY
Look up colleagues across SIL, see their role and location, and get in touch directly.
DISCUSSIONS & COMMUNITY
Join conversations in spaces like Chat over Chai, ask questions, and share what's happening in your part of the world.
NOTIFICATIONS
Choose what you're notified about — announcements, event reminders, replies to your comments — and mute the rest.
BOOKMARKS
Save any post, resource or event to read later, synced across your devices.
